Apartment complex across from the Rivera Middle School baseball diamonds

This picture is of an apartment complex located at 1099 Buena Vista Drive in Merced. This is across the street from the Rivera baseball diamonds, if you are familiar with the area.

Merced county has very, very high rates of poverty. According to the census bureau, nearly 21% of the people in Merced county are living under the poverty line.

I remember walking by this apartment complex and thinking that it looked like a prison.
